In mbm_cntr_assign mode hardware counters are assigned/unassigned to an

Manage a monitoring domain's hardware counters using a per monitoring
domain array of struct mbm_cntr_cfg that is indexed by the hardware
counter	ID. A hardware counter's configuration contains the MBM event

Something strange in this changelog with a few random \t in the text.

Not sure how it got in there. I can only see with "set list" option.

I Will remove it.


ID and points to the monitoring group that it is assigned to, with a
NULL pointer meaning that the hardware counter is available for assignment.

There is no direct way to determine which hardware counters are	assigned

Sure.

to a particular monitoring group. Check every entry of every hardware
counter	configuration array in every monitoring domain to query which

... one more \t above

Sure


MBM events of a monitoring group is tracked by hardware. Such queries
are acceptable because of a very small number of assignable counters.

It is not obvious what "very small number" means. Is it possible to give
a range to help reader understand the motivation?

How about?

MBM events of a monitoring group is tracked by hardware. Such queries
are acceptable because of a very small number of assignable counters(32 to 64).
